Question
Hi Greg,

I have a lithop and it's getting too big for the pot that it's in.  I have never re-potted this plant before so I would like to know what kind of soil should I get for it?

Thank you.

Answer
Amanda,

I apologize, but I have a green thumb with everything except lithops! However, I did find this article that covers the type of soil they will grow in as well as many other tips. Hopefully this helps: http://www.lithop.supanet.com/Page_2.html

Sincerely,
